Abstract

An 84-year-old man was admitted with epigastralgia. Computed tomography showed contrast-enhanced wall thickness in the cystic duct. An endoscopic examination revealed short irregular stricture in the cystic duct, and per-oral cholangioscopy revealed a reddish papillary tumor at the stricture site. Surgical resection revealed high-grade biliary intraepithelial neoplasia (BilIN) at the stricture site of the cystic duct. To our knowledge, this is the first case of a solitary high-grade BilIN epithelium in the cystic duct detected by per-oral cholangioscopy.
